Through a change of regularization scheme to MSbar and a matching back to full four-dimensional QCD, this result determines the first non-perturbative contribution in the weak-coupling expansion of hot QCD pressure.6 pages, 4 figures, talk presented at Lattice 2005 (Non-zero temperature and density)High Energy Physics - Latticetext
